Welcome Kuwait Sunrise

The temperatures the last couple days have been 118° F. (48° C) going down at night to 91° F (33° C), according to my friends at Weather Underground: Kuwait.

But the five weeks I have been away have made a difference, I can feel it. The sun is rising almost a full hour later. The clouds are different, early in the morning, and there are more of them. No, no, I am not breaking out my sweaters yet, but the shift of the seasons has already begun in Kuwait, and I am nearly dancing for joy. I love the six months of winter in Kuwait.

For some reason, I am not jet lagging so badly this time, or at least not yet. Sometimes it hits me hard a couple days after arriving, but so far, so good.

I notice it here, too! The weather is total dog-days of August, but we are long past the days when the sun rose before I did. And the sun changes the prayer times, so I can “feel” the change in my ears as well as in my eyes.

Welcomeback !!
would you believe the temp. was 29 C and we were BBQing outside lastweekend !? im not making this up really… if someone would have told me this i wouldnt have believed them ,, i never ever experienced such weather in august must be Global Warming at its finest .. 🙂

WHOA! wait! wait! Abdulaziz, I want that monitor! It sounds like a very cool effect! LOL!

Noracassandra – how interesting – everyone checking in is saying their weather is a little different this year. . . and here, and in Seattle, they are saying it is cooler . . . opposite of what I would have thought from global warming.

Thanks, EniGma! It’s good to be back. 🙂

Thanks Cixousianpanic, and I am happy to see you, too!

You know, Sparkle, I really enjoyed having a little coolness in Seattle! And there were several very summary days and hard-to-sleep nights! No A/C!

No darling it’s been so hot here this year! It hasn’t been this hot since 2000!! But as the weather cools down from 40c – 34c you can start feel the autumn knocking on its way!

Finland on the other hand has had a horrible cold summer… Every one has been saying it’s one of the worst in years! But since August knocked on their door it became warm and reached the 30c almost! Now that is for sure not normal for a Finnish August!

Grammy – Doho? Maybe the heat is getting to you? 😉 As for Titian, at first I wrote Tiepolo, thinking he ws the one who did all the ceilings with the amazing sky and glowing clouds, but I couldn’t find a single example, so I changed it to Titian, who also did the glowing clouds thing. I think I’m losing my mind. . .

Noracassandra – Ooooh, hot hot summer in Cyprus! And cold in Finland – time to stoke up the sauna? Do you have a sauna in Cyprus for the winter months?

We’re planning for one! But not yet! It’s like 15c may be bit bellow 10c in the night and that’s for 1-2months only!! So no rush for the sauna! 😉 We haven’t built our house yet but then we’ll get it done for sure!
